The humanoid programmes that are not for sale yet: platforms in production for a first customer, platforms still in pilot, and one design nobody outside the company has seen.

Every item is stored as a verified catalog entry with access, pricing, evidence, limits and a verification date. Announcements and long-range roadmaps are labelled separately from things a reader can use or buy now.

Industrial generalist

Atlas

Boston Dynamics

Hyundai-owned industrial humanoid now in production, with every 2026 unit committed to Hyundai’s robot centre and Google DeepMind. Replaces the hydraulic research platform with an electric one built for factory shifts: 56 degrees of freedom, 2.3 m reach, 50 kg lift and sealing for industrial environments.

Enterprise only · Boston Dynamics has not published a price or an order page; outside customers start in 2027.

AI-first manufacturing

Figure 03

Figure AI

Third-generation humanoid built in Figure’s own factory and running logistics sequencing on BMW’s Spartanburg assembly line. Moves factory work from scripted pick-and-place to learned whole-body control: palm cameras, tactile hands and Helix policies that also ran inside 30 unseen homes.

Enterprise only · Figure has not published a price or order path; robots are placed with partners rather than sold.

Vertical integration

Tesla Optimus Gen 3

Tesla

Tesla’s ground-up humanoid redesign, built on the converted Fremont car line and still not shown in public. Trades an outside supply chain for Tesla’s own: driving networks inherited from its cars, in-house chips and a plant it already owns.

Preview · Tesla has not published a price, specification, order page or reveal date; circulating spec sheets are not its own.

Android archetype

Unitree H2

Unitree Robotics

Unitree’s full-size flagship humanoid: 180 cm, 31 degrees of freedom and a bionic head, listed but not yet orderable. Buys motion quality rather than payload: high-torque joints and over-the-air control updates at a price no other full-size humanoid matches.

Waitlist · Unitree has not published a checkout price: its store lists the H2 without a buy button and routes buyers to sales.

LatestBuy-record audit finds the H2 is a waitlist with a $29,900 list price and no buy button Humanoid Observer · 4 Sep 2026

Industrial archetype

UBTech Walker S2

UBTech Robotics

Industrial humanoid in mass production since late 2025, with autonomous battery swapping that keeps it working across shifts. Optimises for uptime rather than agility: 15 kg payload, three-minute battery swaps and fleet software coordinating several robots on one line.

Enterprise only · UBTech has not published a unit price; the robot sells through enterprise contracts and per-month service agreements.

LatestOrder-sheet audit quotes the Walker S2 at $68,000 to $120,000, or about $5,000 a month Humanoid Observer · 4 Sep 2026
